Montgomery Bell Park in Dickson, Tennessee will be hosting a major annual conference of white supremacists for the second year in a row from April 5-7 2013. This is the 11th conference of the white supremacist group American Renaissance (AmRen). AmRen is designated a hate group by a number of human rights organizations. AmRen is listed as a terrorist organization by several states including Virginia. The presence of a terror group in Montgomery Bell Park is unacceptable and presents a clear and present danger to public health and safety. What is AmRen? Amren is a newsletter that publishes pseudo-scientific research which argues that people of color are intellectually and morally inferior to white people. The organization is led by a white supremacist named Jared Taylor. Previous attendees at the conference include Ku Klux Klan members (including former KKK “Grand Wizard” David Duke), neo-Nazis (such as Don Black who runs the neo-Nazi website “stormfront“), holocaust deniers, anti-immigration thugs, and other racist and fascist groups and people who promote racial hatred. Who is Supposed to be at the Conference This Year? Some speakers at this conference include: John Derbyshire an ex-writer for the National Review who was recently fired for a racist rant he published advising white parents to teach their children to “avoid concentrations of blacks not all known to you personally”, “before voting for a black politician scrutinize his/her character much more carefully than you would a white”, “do not act the Good Samaritan to blacks in apparent distress”, etc. He currently writes for a white supremacist and anti-immigration website called vdare where he wrote recently that, “White supremacy, in the sense of a society in which key decisions are made by white Europeans, is one of the better arrangements history has come up with.” Sam Dickson an anti-Semite who is a former lawyer for the Ku Klux Klan and holocaust denier. He is a white nationalist who attacks affirmative action, interracial marriage, gays and lesbians, and immigration. Fabrice Robert an Islamophobic anti-immigration activist who founded a fascist organization in France called Bloc Identitaire. Jared Taylor who believes that black people are genetically predisposed to having lower IQs than whites and has stated in an article published on his website that, “Blacks and whites are different. When blacks are left entirely to their own devices, western civilization, any kind of civilization, disappears.” What Can We Do? After signing the petition, please contact Dickson County mayor Bob Rial by calling 615-789-7000 and entering 5 to be connected to the office of the mayor. You can also call the park and voice your concerns at 615-797-9051. Here is an example of what you could say: "Hello my name is _____. I am concerned about the American Renaissance (AmRen) white supremacist conference that Montgomery Bell Park is planning to host from April 5th through the 7th. I see the decision to host this conference as an irresponsible promotion of racist ideology and if you do not cancel the conference I will no longer be able to patronize the Montgomery Bell Park Inn and will be advising my family and friends to do the same. American Renaissance is a terrorist organization and its presence in the park is a clear and present danger to public health and safety. This is unacceptable and I urge you to take immediate action on this issue."

Overview: Whereas... the innovative practices of art and design play an essential role in improving STEM education and advancing STEM research; art and design provide real solutions for our everyday lives; artists and designers can effectively communicate complex data and scientific information; the tools and methods of design offer new models for creative problem-solving and interdisciplinary partnerships in a changing world; artists and designers are playing an integral role in the development of modern technology; artists and designers are playing a key role in manufacturing; May would be an appropriate month to designate as STEM-to-STEAM Month.

On Sept 14, 2001, Congress passed the Authorization for Use of Military Force, freeing the president to send drones into Pakistan or other countries. Opponents of this despicable policy claim hundreds of civilians have been killed, despite denials by the administration. In its protest of nominee John Brennan as head of the CIA, Code Pink brought a list of names of victims, many of them children. We are Being Lied To Yet Again!

The Philadelphia Firefighters are THE BEST Organization within the City of Philadelphia workforce! I believe your group deserves Mayor Nutter to honor the contract you have requested -- NO MATTER who doesn't understand or accept the terms. I know first hand the quality of your employees represents an excellent model for the rest of the City employees to learn from. I had the pleasure of serving your many locations while working for AFLAC and note the team spirit each tour offers to one another and the community at large.If you think that your firefighters deserve fair treatment. If you think that your firefighters families deserve fair treatment. Or if you just think that Mayor Michael Nutter is a lying, cheating, and self serving mayor with no regard for the people that he "serves" then please sign this petition. Let Mayor Nutter and the members of the PFD know whose side you are on!

I request that the use of cellphones while moving in a motor vehicle (i.e. driving that motor vehicle) be outlawed. It is a matter of safety. I frequently encounter other drivers who are preoccupied on their cell phones while poorly executing turns and other maneuvers in traffic It is not merely scary; it is life endangering and completely unnecessary.

Our Presidents safety should be the countries top most priority and of the up most concern. The office of the president should be respect, no one who threaten the president should be in attendance.

Proposed bans on assault type military firearms will not be effective in preventing mass shootings. Many other semi automatic and even lever or bolt action firearms can hold many cartridges for rapid fire. By allowing only singe shot firearms the danger of mass shootings would be reduced significantly.

I live out in the country where everything is zoned for Agriculture. But we are being taken over by MotoCross tracks. Our peace and quiet that we need for our livestock is being taken away by dirt bikes and ATV'S roaring around at 107 to 115 DB. The noise and the dust is very harmful to the livestock that we are raising.

I have a grandparent with terminal cancer. I know that had he lived his life differently in terms of diet, he could have prevented this disease and perhaps extended his life a little longer. He is still alive,but my family is playing the waiting game.

Military type assault weapons were developed for use in a war-time situation. High capacity magazines serve no useful civilian purpose. These weapons and clips are designed to end as many lives as potentially possible.They have no place in our streets or in our schools.
